There’s just so many ways to use milk in cooking and baking be it for a snack or dinners or even desserts and drinks it sure has its place in our daily food intake. Since milk is so commonly used in our daily food preparation, I choose Greenfields’ Fresh & Honest Milk!

Greenfields originated from Indonesia and was established in 1997. Greenfields milk is Honest Milk because there are no additives, no chemicals, no antibiotics and no hormones added in the process of milk production. The milk comes from their own scientifically-sourced and managed herd. The milk is produced, pasteurized and packed within the dairy. Optimal freshness is ensured as the milk is single-pasteurised. As the plant utilizes state-of-the-art automation, human contact with the products is eliminated, ensuring a high level of hygiene.

Here’s a little sweet snack that I made over the weekend using fresh milk. Zebra Cake that was baked to please!
